Archival Information
Archival history:
Immediate source of acquisition:

Allied Materials
Related material:
The Inn is also included in the poor rate assessment books of St Andrew Holborn for 1728-1829 (P82/AND). Thavie's Inn had no church or chapel, and searchers for baptisms, marriages and burials in the area are advised to use the parish registers of St Andrew Holborn.
No records are known to survive of Thavie's Inn as an Inn of Chancery. The Inn became defunct and the premises sold in 1769. The site was later occupied by a workhouse, Thavies Inn Casual Ward at Holborn; the London Metropolitan Archives holds some records at reference CBG.
